I like the inflation much better than the 08 recession unemployment

Of course for a lot of people the 08 recession was great because labour was so cheap.

Yeah, back then it took me 6 months of applying to minimum wage jobs every day to finally get a job at McDonald's.

I mean up to certain point.... If the job you don't lose... doesn't provide you enough to live...might as well be unemployed.
